I Shall Sing

From the depths of despair to the heights of the mountains, I am carried by my Sovereign Lord Jehovah.

From the deep shadow below into the light of the warming sun, He transfers me in the twinkling of an eye.

From a weakened state to a powerful being, my God nods and so I become.

For this I shall sing to my God and for the promises that He has given and for the love that He has shown, I will raise my voice to the heavens.

My voice will extend through the valleys of darkness and my enemy will look on in wonder. My melody will echo through the crags in the wilderness and the wild beasts will lift their heads and pay attention, for the joy of my God is in the sound of my voice.

And His glory that I sing for will drift across the land in all directions, to the north and to the south it will go. From where the sun rises to where the sun sets it will be heard, and the nations will become ashamed for the glory they have rejected.

And the little one will smile, and my fathers and my brothers, my sisters and my mothers, indeed all the Holy ones of the congregation of my Lord, will join with me in a great song of praise to our God.

We shall all lift our heads high and indeed all our voices will echo as one, for the glory of our Father is great and His love is upon his people.
